Computational Scaffolding of Composition, Value, and Color for Disciplined Drawing

One way illustrators engage in disciplined drawing—the process of drawing to improve technical skills—is through studying and replicating reference images. However, for many novice and intermediate digital artists, knowing how to approach studying a reference image can be challenging. It can also be difficult to recei…

Reimagining Misuse as Creative Practice: Impressions and Implications of Usage Norms on Digital Artists

Digital artists use creativity support tools guided by their ideas of “intended use” and therefore "misuse''—but what does misuse mean in creative practice? To discover what constitutes misuse and what creative contexts call for misuse, we interviewed 20 expert creative practitioners across 8 visual art disciplines. W…

Beyond the Artifact: Power as a Lens for Creativity Support Tools

Researchers who build creativity support tools (CSTs) define abstractions and software representations that align with user needs to give users the power to accomplish tasks. However, these specifications also structure and limit how users can and should think, act, and express themselves. Thus, tool designers unavoid…

Understanding Version Control as Material Interaction with Quickpose

Whether a programmer with code or a potter with clay, practitioners engage in an ongoing process of working and reasoning with materials. Existing discussions in HCI have provided rich accounts of these practices and processes, which we synthesize into three themes: (1) reciprocal discovery of goals and materials, (2)…

Automated Accessory Rigs for Layered 2D Character Illustrations

Mix-and-match character creation tools enable users to quickly produce 2D character illustrations by combining various predefined accessories, like clothes and hairstyles, which are represented as separate, interchangeable artwork layers. However, these accessory layers are often designed to fit only the default body…

What We Can Learn From Visual Artists About Software Development

This paper explores software’s role in visual art production by examining how artists use and develop software. We conducted interviews with professional artists who were collaborating with software developers, learning software development, and building and maintaining software. We found artists were motivated to lea…

Supporting Visual Artists in Programming through Direct Inspection and Control of Program Execution

Programming offers new opportunities for visual art creation, but understanding and manipulating the abstract representations that make programming powerful can pose challenges for artists who are accustomed to manual tools and concrete visual interaction. We hypothesize that we can reduce these barriers through progr…

Editing Spatial Layouts through Tactile Templates for People with Visual Impairments

Spatial layout is a key component in graphic design. While people who are blind or visually impaired (BVI) can use screen readers or magnifiers to access digital content, these tools fail to fully communicate the content's graphic design information. Through semi-structured interviews and contextual inquiries, we iden…
